ok so theres not a kit

As far as I know, no kit. But a little innovation will lead you in the right path. Battery trays aren't hard to make, motor placement is pretty pre-determined, servo placement can be tweaked as well as ESC placement.

Do a search and look around for other combo's. Joe Ford of Castle has recently converted one if I'm not mistaken.

Here is a battery tray:

So all you need for the conversion is this tray and the motor mount nitrostarter linked to.

I also have a double-servo tray that i haven't listed yet, along with the 2 speed adapter and 2 speed gears if you wish to retain the 2 speed. i also made a single speed adapter that fits Revo/Jato spurs to the stock 2 speed shaft - again, I haven't listed these, as I have not had time to produce a batch yet. :)

RC-Monster Mike · 06.02.2009, 08:43 PM

Yes, I suppose I could offer a kit easily enough. :)

Mike, this is what I called you about earlier...

Got your message this morning, Brian - thanks. :)

**Mechanical break vs. ESC break -** 06.04.2009, 09:46 AM

Hello,

I am working on a conversion for my kyosho gt2, and was wondering what the advantages are of using the mechanical break vs the break from the ESC? I have a mamba monster ESC.

How fast are you planning to go?

Most use mechanical brakes when using the 2-speed since its a clutch-type operation, theres no way to apply effective motor brakes.
However, if using a regular center diff or spool in the center, motor brakes work great.

Also, depending on your Radio choice, theres also the choice to mix in both motor and mechanical brakes. For example, on the Airtronics M11, you can plug a mech brake servo in the 4th channel spot and mix it in specifically for braking uses only, to assist the motor in braking duties.

I just want to be able to beat the nitro guys on our parking lot track. I have a losi8 with 2200kv/ motor 15/45 and it was not quick enough. I just want my gt2 to be much faster. I have never had an on road car before with a 2speed. Where could I get a regular center diff that fits the gt2?

Thanks for your help!

RC-Monster Mike · 06.04.2009, 10:17 AM

The Losi8 with the 2200 combo can be volted and geared to beat the nitro guys pretty easily. A Kyosho diff will fit the GT and GT2, but you would need to space the driveshafts and use a buggy top plate. The IGT and IGT2 are basically 1/8 buggies with a 2 speed and car body.
